Founded in 1818, Brooks Brothers was the first ready-to-wear fashion emporium in America. Since then, Brooks Brothers has been a proud institution that has shaped the American style of dress through fashion innovation, fine quality, personal service, and exceptional value in their products.

Brooks Brothers is one of America’s oldest retailers, specializing in men’s suits and outerwear; the company also sells women’s and children’s apparel. Brooks Brothers operates about 250+ upscale retail stores and outlet locations in the US. Through partnerships, Brooks Brothers has 150-plus stores in about 15 countries including Chile, China, Italy, and Japan. Brooks Brothers is owned by Retail Brand Alliance (RBA) and led by CEO Claudio Del Vecchio.

SkillNet Solutions, a leading global retail systems integrator specialized in providing complete end-to-end omni-channel commerce solutions, today announces that Brooks Brothers, a renowned fashion retailer delivering classic American clothing for nearly 200 years, has selected them to provide ongoing software support and enhancements for their store systems including Oracle Retail Xstore POS and Oracle Retail Customer Engagement. Citing depths of experience and capability as well as flexibility and scalability of SkillNet’s Xstore service offerings as its primary deciding factors, Brooks Brothers has partnered with the retail consulting firm utilizing its professional and expert services to support their retail operations across its 250+ upscale stores and outlets in North America.
